…showed last 75 words of 676 total…excellent example of a literary satire. Its main focus is on pointing out the uselessness of industrial workers. I believe that once the parallel between the characters in the story and the various aspects of industry is understood, this story becomes quite interesting and amusing. I believe that the quality of this short story and Böll’s contribution to the rebirth of German literature makes him a deserving recipient of the Nobel prize.
